But I didn’t start in news and media
My journey to media was forged out of something I needed
But first, let’s talk about YOU…
one day, a major news or media outlet would feature the revolutionary results I’m
creating and recognize the impact I’m making
I imagined…
I would take that news feature and leverage the credibility to offer to train wound
care nurses in a small nursing facility
then I would have the results I created there be published in the news again so
I can then teach a larger nursing facility
then I would have the results I created there be recognized by the news so
I can speak and teach in nursing conferences and conventions
I fantasized…
I would gather testimonies and be celebrated by news and media as a Revolutionary
Expert in Healing Non-Healing Wounds (which is an oxymoron)
Then I can teach in physicians’ conferences and conventions
and be hired by large hospitals to train their nurses and doctors
Millions of people with non-healing wounds would get healed and learn to manage their health for good and billions of dollars in wound care expenses will be saved.
but attempts landed on unanswered emails and phone calls unreturned
I never got to create that dream
I earned all the credentials and specializations, created phenomenal results, YET NONE
OF THEM MATTERED
in the pursuit of creating a greater impact.
Because at the end of the day…
I didn’t have the means to get the visibility
or recognition that could scale my impact.
I took the matters
into my my own hands
and I committed to a mission.
